Alabama strength coach destroys 2017 runner-up trophy

Just days ahead of Alabama’s College Football Playoff national title game against Georgia, Cochran entered the Alabama locker room with the 2017 runner-up trophy in hand. Cochran proceeded to destroy that trophy as a prop for a motivational speech.

In case y’all were wondering what #Bama does with 2nd place trophies, Scott Cochran is here to remind you

We don’t play for participation trophies, our guys are after #NationalChampionship trophies

Please tell me Nick Saban knew he was going to destroy the trophy. And where did he get a sledge hammer? Why did he need a sledge hammer? Oh man, that was insane.

Players then went on to cautiously kick the trophy without shoes. If there is a more ALABAMA FOOTBALL video out there, I certainly have not seen it.
